"Where did the thief come from, and he dared to kidnap me, did he find out my identity? Know who I am? I am not only the princess Jing of Nanzhan, but also the dignified princess of Beiqiu, an important envoy of the alliance between the north and the south. ”

There was no response, and there was silence for a while, apparently timid.

I struck while the iron was hot, and continued: "If you let me have three long and two short, and the two countries go to war, then the time will be full of hunger and misery, then it will be your guilt. Thousands of people are suffering because of you, and can you bear it? , what, are you afraid, if you are afraid, let me go quickly. No, otherwise there would be something for you to see. ”

I pulled my neck and threatened with hatred, but no one answered. The two Assassins were unmoved, not by cowardice, but by the back of their ears.

Duobu sighed coldly behind me and said, "Save some strength and don't scream, they won't hurt you, if you really want to take your life, you will do it early in the morning."

I tilted my head and stared at Duobu, in this case, what I could do was just say a few cruel words, I couldn't be like a chick waiting to be slaughtered, just waiting to die and do nothing. Even if this intimidation has no effect, it can't be lost in terms of momentum, so show your identity first and shake it, in case it works.

Duobu didn't care much about the eyes I passed to her asking her not to leak my confidence, and said with a straight face: "It's actually useless to intimidate the opponent by saying ruthless words and revealing your identity in advance." If others don't know who you are, why bother to trouble you, it's because they know who you are, they are guilty of attacking you, so you can't deter them. Also, the idiom starvation everywhere is not appropriate here, you are using it incorrectly. ”

The corners of my eyes and mouth twitched so badly that I was close to having a stroke.

I moved my lips and said quietly, "Okay, thank you, I see." Please shut up! ”

On weekdays, I really want Duobu to talk more, but now, I really want to pour her a bowl of fierce medicine and poison her dumb!

I twisted my noble head in frustration and lifted my chin high, trying to be more stiff, but when the big knife was cold against the flesh of my neck, I couldn't get up.

The assassin who held me hostage was not a new hitman, not only was he not ruthless enough, but he was not bold enough, and his hand holding the knife was trembling all the time. The sharp knife resting on my shoulder, because of the trembling of his hand, poked at my ear from time to time and wiped it, shaving off a few of my hairs. Even if I have a good mentality, I have to collapse.

"Didn't I say, assassin who licks blood from the knife edge, isn't it something you can do to kill people and kidnap tickets, why don't you even have the most basic composure as an assassin, can you hold the knife hand without shaking, you assassin is too perfunctory."

I stared down at the knife, swallowed, tried to contain the panic in my heart, and shrank my neck back slightly, his knife had no intention of retreating.

I rolled my eyes, my nails digging deep into my palms, and I raised my voice to remind the people behind me: "You have practiced, the claws of holding the knife can be steady, and you must not be careless." If you dare to hurt me, then you will not survive. I know, if I do, please move the knife away from my neck. ”

As I spoke, his knife moved a little closer, and was already at my throat.

Forget it, it's still important to save your life, and we'll talk about it later.

I cleared my throat, put on a smiling face, and said timidly: "Big brother, if you have something to say, don't be angry, everything is easy to discuss." Who sent you, and what did you come from? Is it money or death? If you want money, then you can make a price, as long as you let us go, and when I return to the palace, I will send someone to send it to you. I promise you'll pay ten times more than your masterminds—how? Pretty good deal, right? ”

The two remained silent.

I have always talked a lot, regardless of the occasion, and the more afraid I become, the more I like to speak to strengthen my courage, and occasionally to delay time with others, so that I can wait for an opportunity to escape. Duobu knew this, so she only reminded me that I was not worried about my life for the time being, and then stopped persuading me and let me ramble.

But the assassin was quite impatient to listen to me, and before I finished speaking, he couldn't bear it anymore, and lowered his voice and scolded me: "Shut up, don't talk!"

I shut up and was silent for a while.

Judging by the situation, the reason why they didn't embarrass me should be because of my identity, knowing that they can't hurt me. Come to think of it, the real purpose of these assassins is not me, but for Tao Guifei's aunt and nephew.

In this case, these people should be the guards sent by the palace to arrest the criminal slaves of the court. But if it's really a guard, why bother with a mask? If you are not a guard, you should be chased by the enemy. I don't understand, it's really nerve-wracking.

But what bothers me the most is these two killers who are like stupid donkeys, if I am afraid that I will stop them from arresting Aunt Tao's nephew, they can knock me out and leave me alone, so why bother to leave two people to guard me.

Then again, I seem to have heard this assassin's voice somewhere. Because he spoke so quickly and couldn't speak clearly, I didn't listen to him too much.

I tried hard to no avail, and after a moment of sluggishness, I came back to my senses, and set my eyes on Duobu, who frowned tightly and looked solemn, but I didn't notice that I was giving her a look.

I looked away from Duobu's face, and after a speech, I tried to lure the assassin to speak again, and said, "I think you don't want money or money, so you might as well let us go now...... It's not interesting for us to do it like this, take a step back, I don't think I met you, and you don't catch us, what should you do. Don't worry, I will never stop you from carrying out your mission......" Before I could finish my words, he raised his hand to cover my mouth, and this time he didn't even scold me.

I was so angry that I shook my head vigorously and said, "Take away your stinky hands!"

He turned a deaf ear.

I don't like to touch people the most, especially this kind of person who is harmful to me, and he dares to cover my mouth, it's so presumptuous! So I opened my mouth and bit down, biting down on his jaw, hard enough to bite through the flesh.

He hissed in pain and jerked his hand back. He must have been annoyed, panting, but he couldn't bear to do anything to me, but the knife was back on my neck, and the hand holding the knife shook even more.

I was stunned, laughed dryly, and quickly apologized.

I didn't hear the assassin's reply, only a terrible scream from ahead, like the pain of a beast being torn to the flesh and bones.

This scream was Tao Guifei's, and I could make out her voice.

Perhaps the two Assassins had caught up with them, causing her to be frightened. But why can I only hear her voice, but I don't hear Tao Fu'er?

Tao Guifei was heartbreaking, so miserable that she couldn't add her wail, floating in the secluded mountains and forests, like a white ape wailing, making people creepy.

I held my breath and tried to hear the direction of the sound, but the sad sound stopped abruptly, and there was no sound in the mountains. The wind blows, the autumn leaves fall, and there is no movement.

Tao Guifei and Tao Xu'er, are they fainted, or are they both dead?

As I was thinking about it, I was hit the back of the head, and my eyes were white for a moment.

The assassin let go, and I couldn't stand, and I fell to the ground in a daze. As he fell to the ground, he heard the exclamations of Duobu and the sound of the Assassin's hurried departure.

————

I passed out for a long time, but I gradually came to my senses. I felt a white light dangling in front of my eyes, stabbing my eyes and making my eyes hurt, and I wanted to raise my hand to cover my eyes, but I couldn't use my strength.

Slowly opened his eyes, the sky was still not bright, and the surroundings were lonely and bleak.

I turned over with difficulty, the back of my neck ached unbearably, and I simply continued to be paralyzed. I lay on my side on the damp ground, staring at the canopy of heaven with my eyes half-open, and when I was fully awake, I opened my mouth and called out the name of Duobu twice, but no one answered me. My heart tightened, and I hurriedly turned over to look for it, and when I got up, I found Duobu lying at my feet.

I shoved her awake, then pulled her into her frenzy and ran towards the road.

The closer I got to the road, the more I felt that something was wrong, and the wind was blowing, and the wind was mixed with a faint smell of rust. To be precise, it should be the smell of blood.

While running, Duobu suddenly stopped and stood in place, I couldn't drag her, turned around and asked, "Why don't you go?"

She didn't reply to me, but looked down into the grass by the roadside.

I didn't have very good eyesight at night, I couldn't see very clearly, I followed her line of sight and saw nothing. Duobu slowly pulled out the fire fold and crouched down, illuminating her feet.

I could finally see clearly that her feet were stepping on one hand...... He also had a long whip in his hand, which was my self-defense weapon in the carriage.

Who is it, Tao Xu'er or Tao Guifei?

I shuddered uncontrollably, clenched my fists secretly, and bit my lower lip desperately, even if I didn't confirm it, I had already guessed it.

I hesitated and did not dare to move, but despite my fear, I approached with a hard head. The click of feet on broken branches was unusually loud.

Where the grass is covered, the person soaked in a pool of blood is none other than Tao Fuer.

Her face, which was already full of scars, was now stained with half-dry, black, red, and smelly bloodstains, which at first glance looked like a ghost, so mad.

Her eyes were still open before they were closed, just as she had been when she was fighting with others.

I took a deep breath, endured the fear in my heart, crouched down unhurriedly, stretched out my hand, and closed my eyes tremblingly.

Tao Xu'er's body was already cold.

Duobu gently patted me on the shoulder as a sign of comfort, and I turned back to her and smiled and didn't speak, she thought I was sad about Tao Yu'er's death, but it wasn't. I said a long time ago that I don't have much affection for Tao Xu'er, not to mention that this person is really not worthy of my friendship. My original purpose for helping her was also my selfishness, and we all had our own needs. Although her death has nothing to do with me, it can't be said that there is no slightest fluctuation in my heart, after all, I have also known each other.

Duobu and I searched all around, but we couldn't find Tao Guifei, she was still alive. Why did the Assassins only take her and kill Tao Xu'er? What kind of trick is it and what is the intention?
